Updating garmin 430w

John Clark ATP, CFI FAA FAAST Team Member EAA Flight Advisor RV8 N18U "Sunshine" KSBAAlex, Having had many of the same problems over the years, the one thing I can suggest is that you go ahead and re-load the drivers for the particular USB port that you're working with.I have found that when you download the drivers, they only seem to work for the one USB port (this may be an XP issue).In the past, when I've had a problem, I just re-load the drivers and then make a note of the USB port for the next time. I think it has to do with the several day time delay from downloading to trying to burn card today. I've had a couple funny glitches with the 430 over the last year, might be faulty card.If the port is preempting for drivers, it probably needs them.

A single navigator bundle for the GNS 430W/530W includes the nav database, obstacles and terrain starting at 9. New IFR chart coverage is available for the Caribbean for the G3X Touch, Garmin Pilot (i OS only), aera 660 and aera 795/796.

I do not know about V 5.2, i got 5.0 Main improvement besides some other are LPV and LNAV/VNAV approaches, very important IMHO. This is helpful when you are entering long routes on airways.

LP approaches also have advisory vertical guidance added.

In any case, it seems like it has always been cantankerous to get it to work smoothly.
